UPM. Community of Advanced Materials for Sustainability

The Community of Advanced Materials for Sustainability (UPM-MAS) is a grouping of people and multi- and interdisciplinary collaboration spaces of the Polytechnic University of Madrid (UPM) dedicated to materials science. The UPM-MAS Community, created in the last year, already counts with the collaboration of more than 17 research structures and more than a hundred researchers associated to the UPM, and promotes professional relationships between the different research groups through events and visits, and the development of different dissemination elements.
